Wolves would be looking to move further away from the relegation zone when they play host to relegation candidates Leeds United on Saturday afternoon.
After the impressive win against Tottenham Hotspur a fourth night ago, many expected the Wanderers to at least get a point at Newcastle United last weekend, but they failed to do so, losing 2-1. Nevertheless, Julen Lopetegui's men would be encouraged by the fact that this weekend's match will be played in a stadium where they have already secured some famous victories this season. Wins against Liverpool, Spurs and West Ham United have all come at this ground, so it would be no surprise if the home side take home all three points.
Meanwhile, Leeds United come into the game at a time when things are not going as they should. The Whites have managed to win only one of their last thirteen matches in the Premier League. As a result, they sit second from the bottom in the standings, but still have a good chance of playing in the top flight next season, with just one point separating them from the safe zone. Given that they, however, currently have one of the worst away records in the league - seven away games without a win - they may have to wait beyond Saturday to get back on track.
Wolves vs Leeds United Betting Tips: Under 2.5 goals
In Wolves' recent games, it was the lack of goals that made headlines. For example, four of the Wanderers' last five matches ended with less than 2.5 goals.
Considering the fact that five of the last six matches of the guests ended similarly, a bet on "under 2.5 goals" might be the best option for Saturday's match.
- Best Tip: Under 2,5 goals

Wolves Team News
Wolves captain Rúben Neves picked up a minor injury in last weekend's defeat to Newcastle United, but the 26-year-old could be available for this weekend's game.
Boubacar Traoré, Pablo Sarabia, Hee-chan Hwang, Sasa Kalajdzic and Chiquinho were all missing due to injury and Saturday's game would come too soon for them.
Hwang Hee-chan only lasted about a minute on the pitch before scoring his first goal of the season in last weekend's game, so he can hope for a starting spot.

Leeds United Team News
Patrick Bamford, whose ongoing injury problems have proved costly for Leeds United, managed to get on the scoresheet in the draw with Brighton, so he will be the one to keep an eye on.
Stuart Dallas has been out since April 2022 with a fractured thigh and the 31-year-old is not expected to return this weekend, but otherwise the visitors have no other injury worries.
